Ever since I upgraded from Mac OS 10.3* to 10.4, I've been mighty suspicious of the Baysian filters in Mail. They really weren't very responsive any more. More and more spam cascades through to my inbox.
Today's word-search-based trawl of my spam folder was the final straw: Mail had misidentified mail from a publisher as spam for the third time, and had inexplicably caught one from next term's employer a few days back. (The publisher I could sort of understand, seeing the odd spamesque features in the email.)
I've reset the filters, but I'm not counting on the solution being so easy. We'll see.

Resetting has already made a dramatic difference. Yesterday, I'd say 50/90 spam got through. This morning? 0/38.
